Griffin was recently diagnosed with B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia after weeks of worsening joint pain and fatigue that caused him to miss school. He is now undergoing treatment at Children’s Mercy surrounded by the love, prayers, and support of family and friends.

Despite everything, Griffin remains an outgoing, energetic, sweet, and happy boy. He loves soccer, baseball, and basketball, playing with trucks and dinosaurs, and pretending to be Spider-Man. His favorite foods are pepperoni pizza, chicken fingers, chocolate chip cookies, and vanilla ice cream.
